I recommend that you upgrade yourself to a 128 or 256 as games are geitting bigger. (see Final Fantasy Tactics Advance). And no, I dont think it is possible to compress games more then they are that much.

No, flashing compressed games does not work. Zipped games would have to be decompressed to some sort of volatile memory, and the carts don't have that much RAM.
Yes, flashing compressed .mb programs could be made to work. A .mb program is smaller than 250 KB and runs from the RAM built into the GBA. I just might write an upgrade to my Multiboot Menu program that allows use of GBA-LZ77 compressed programs, once I've finished a project for ddrei.com.

I recommend you do not pirate games as the above post seems to recommend. Buy a cart based on the size of a game you wish to develop yourself, not on which d/l roms you can load onto it.

Wrong time, wrong forum. Try somewhere else. And next time post in the appropriate area of a forum too. Notice we do have a "Flash Equipment" section...

Also notice that the thread 11+ months old?
Locked.
